And I’m taking Poison Ivy off the table. Too easy. I think I’d go with The Penguin, mostly cause that just seems like normal crimes.

me. I want to wear a flat cap over my “haven’t shaved in 3 days” stubble with a baseball bat and just go around smashing shit and menacing people before getting my ass kicked by some dork in spandex with superpowers

Same, I just wanna be a guy that unloads crates in a sketchy dock and sees the bat signal and says "watch out boys, THE BAT’S out tonight!’ As if he isn’t out every night. If he wasn’t they could just do crime whenever the bat signal was off.

Lex Luthor, mostly because superman would probably take it easy on me compared to some other superheroes.

I’m already a goon for capitalists in real life though so nothing much would change, seems like a pretty solid outcome if you have to become a comic book goon

Sabertooth. If not friend, why friend shaped?

I’ve rewritten headcanon so I could enjoy an unproblematic version of him. His backstory is a lot more interesting than Wolverine’s, tortured and ageless, but also visibly a mutant.
